Even if you have kids in states where abortion is currently legal, that can easily change. So just talk to them about digital and physical security. Particularly if they're going to try to seek abortion care without telling you. Arm them with information so they don't get got. #abortion #abortionrights

While Kansas, Idaho, and Missouri are making their case that mifepristone is chemical abortion and killing your children, Washington’s AG filed a brief that was like “actually, mifepristone is so safe that the FDA should relax the existing protocols oh and here’s a bunch of science to back it up.”The science cited by Kansas, Idaho, and Missouri? Some blog polls and “scientific” studies that were retracted last year. I feel like I’m living in an alternate universe.

@FinalOverdrive @AngryBlackLadyOf course not. I've never heard anyone say voting alone was enough. It's going to take petitions, ballot measures, grassroots campaigns from people who want this to change...But none of that can happen if the US doesn't remain a democracy. Think about it this way, it's not about who you think is going to bring the change you want, it's who you think you can get more of that change under. Not everyone agrees on what to do, the fact that people are arguing over Harris is proof in itself that we aren't a monolithic group, so we'll never have a silver bullet candidate for everyone. What we DO have here is a candidate who will safeguard our ability to make that change, probably even roll over for a lot of it. We need to get Harris into office, along with as many Democrat reps as possible, and then we need to keep going.

@cshlan @flowerpot @AngryBlackLady“Post” is the way, unless you’re making a really stupid pun, in which case let the toot fly

@aZa1905 @AngryBlackLady @WastelandWandrr @alexwildIt’s mostly true about people being nice!…except…there’s a roving band of just outright Nazis who keep trying to dogpile anyone who looks Black enough. And they keep getting moderated into oblivion, then start a new account or a new instance and repeat…. It’s awful. Endless whack-a-mole. A lot of your experience will depend on how quick on the ball the mstdn.social folks are.
